Intermix Hops on the Music-for-Fashion Bandwagon

Saying that music and fashion go hand in hand is like acknowledging that peanut butter and jelly taste delicious together. Music sets the tone for runway shows, a musician's image is defined by their wardrobe, musicians consistently play muse to designers and eras of music are associated with the fads of the time.

But this summer, fashion's love of music has practically exploded. Brands like Converse, All Saints, and Missoni have spent the past three months spearheading concert series across the city, featuring young, hip bands for their events, endorsing the theory that fashion's elite should be better versed in the music scene.

On Wednesday, Intermix exemplified this push by inviting their fans (and customers) to a rooftop concert with performances by Locksley and Deluka. While any open-air rooftop's enough to draw a fashion crowd, the added bonus of live music's becoming a standard at fashion events, as expected as free-flowing champagne. At this rate, Fashion Week could turn into Manhattan's own music festival.
